Hot Lemon Tea / Lemon Iced Tea

Lemon Ice Tea


Easy step by step video to show you how to make Hot or Iced Lemon Tea in your Instant Pot


Really, this is not just another crazy recipe. Making tea in the Instant Pot brings out the flavours of the tea leaves, and there’s no more bitter weird aftertaste. Obviously, the nicer quality tea leaves will have an even better flavour profile. This Lemon Tea recipe reminds me of the ones you get at a hong kong cafe (or even better, but that’s a biased opinion). You can skip step 5 and 6 (chill in fridge, and adding ice) if you want this as a HOT lemon tea. So for your next tea break, get out your instant pot and try out this recipe.
